Text and translation
Dolci e vaghi augelletti,
che per verdi boschetti
soavi versi ogn’ hor gite cantando,
fate col vostro canto
noto il mio largo pianto
a quella fera che m’infiamma e strugge,
e ride del mio male
talché mercè con lei gridar non vale,
poiché da me si fugge
et io resto gridando,
“Rendimi il cor da me già posto in bando.”
Sweet and lovely little birds
that among the green groves
wander singing sweet verses
make my immense weeping
manifest with your song
to that wild one who inflames and torments me
and laughs at my pain,
so much so that is not worth pleading with her,
since she flees from me
and I remain, wailing,
“Give me back the heart that I have already exiled.”
